The Woman’s Study Club of Wedowee met Wednesday, April 1, at the Lake Wedowee Fellowship. President Margy Israel welcomed the Club members and encouraged everyone to share the purpose of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs.

GFWC is a federation of approximately 2,300 women’s clubs in the United States which promote civic improvements through volunteer service. GFWC maintains nearly 60,000 members throughout the United States and internationally. GFWC is one of the world’s largest and oldest nonpartisan, nondenominational, women’s volunteer service organizations. Since 1890, the General Federation of Women’s Clubs (GFWC) brings volunteers together by creating inclusive communities around the world. With approximately 60,000 members nationwide, including the District of Columbia, and 12 countries, GFWC volunteers make a global impact. GFWC members vary in age, talent, location, background, and profession, but are united in their dedication to actively improve the lives of others.

Many events and projects are planned in April and May. The Club discussed the yearly scholarship given to a Randolph County High School senior. The Club will be responsible for providing table decorations for the State Convention in Prattville on April 24 and 25.  Jennifer Still and Joy Brooks will represent the Club. As Mental Awareness is one of the Club’s main areas of interest, they will maintain a booth at the May 23 Frog Level event in Wedowee. Donations given that day will go to the Hope Cottage Domestic Violence Shelter in Roanoke. Club members Jennifer Robertson and Nancy Messer were recognized for their work with the International President Suellen Brazil who is from Alabama.

The program presented by Pam Taylor Johnson was entitled “Everything Old is New Again.” She showed the group how she uses antique China she has collected to create wreaths, bird feeders, and tiered dessert trays. The meeting ended with the reading of the Club Collect.
